    Removal / Fitting Duoprop

    Pretty easy to figure it out with some calipers...that's what I did. I believe I still have a piece of the pipe but can't remember if it was for that project or not. You could also buy the Volvo tool and modify it by welding on the socket. Of course that is much more expensive.

    Removal / Fitting Duoprop

    I made my own tool. Basically bought some tube of the correct diameter, cut some slots in it and then welded a 1/2" socket on the end of it. I will see if I can locate a picture. Pretty sure I gave the tool to the guy who bought my boat last January.

    Re-upholstery Job on Cruisers Yacht 338 Bowrider

    Looks like it has a texture. I have been using Silvertex...also available from Albright's. I think I like what you are using. the Silvertex looks a lot like cloth. You do a great job on your top stitching. I have a hard time with that.

    What is the brand/name of that dark material you are using?

    Submersible trailer lights

    My 2018 Ford F-150 Lariat came with LED headlights from the factory. Awesome headlights. I wouldn't buy another car without.

    I never knew what good tech support was until I recently bought my Cobalt. Hard to find that these days with other brands of boats. The best I have seen personally, are Cobalt, Formula, Mastercraft(somewhat), and now Cruisers.

    trailer dolly?

    I have the Power Caster PC2. Back when I bought mine it was only $900. Not great on gravel though. http://www.powercaster.com/power-caster-models/

    Submersible trailer lights

    Hard to believe this is still an issue people talk about when there are sealed LED lights around. I even changed all my travel trailer lights to LED and it doesn't even get dunked.

    Is that the PTFE thread? Personally, I would never use non PTFE thread anymore.

    What are you using for thread this time? I buy vinyl and "sew foam" from Albright's if Trivantage doesn't have it.

    Compression test 180 and 160

    That's fine. 180 actually seems very high. This a good compression gauge? I take it you had the engine warmed up right?

    Boat Wiring Help

    Marine deep cycle batteries are dual purpose batteries. If they have a marine cranking spec on them, they are dual purpose. Personally, if I had a trolling motor, I would be using golf cart batteries if you wanted to go with flooded batteries. Even if you use true deep cycle batteries(golf...

    It's pretty crazy here. That is why it was kinda dumb to be doing things out and about 3 days before the game. All these things they did are already in our backyard. San Diego is only 90 minutes form the campus. They could do these activities anytime they want! Very true about the urban vs...

    With something like this, you are likely just better off replacing it with an LED fixture that covers your existing holes. I see a few in this search...

    Can someone fix the homemade outdrive pressure tester links?

    I was thinking about making a home made tester at one time. I just bit the bullet and bought one of the better ones and it isn't really that expensive. I bought it straight from Stevens. I put in a company name just in case. I also bought the vacuum tester. $112...

    Electric power steering

    What is the voltage at idle and what is it when at higher RPM? Is it stiff when the car is not moving but better if the RPM is higher and the car is also not moving? Reason I ask is because many cars with electric power steering use speed sensors to determine power steering output. Another...

    UCLA effed this up. The players went to Sea World and some Navy thing. Of course if this was for a major bowl, this would have all been covered up and they would have played anyway. You can't tell me there aren't a ton of cases in all teams.
